Well, you've read the notes, the notes answered the question posed in the title of the notes, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - no one knows where they are, sadly.

And the word of the day is: HYPNAGOGIC!

Today, I'm going to e-mail my supervisor about coming in to work and paying some invoices. I know that some shipments had arrived and were unpacked and received in our computer system last week, so I know that there are invoices to pay. Next week, I'll have to go in so that I can do what needs to be done so that the finance department can actually print the checks, so it would be helpful if invoices were actually paid.

Otherwise, today I'm going to go shopping for my sister and niece. My sister has actually been working from home and her daughter doesn't want to go out and possibly get sick, so I'll brave the (hopefully) socially distant crowds and shop.

And now, I'm off to bed.

Have a good day, all!

Listening to Lukas Foss' second piano concerto, which veers from gorgeous Americana to clangy and back. But I like it - I'm woefully ignorant of his music so am listening to a lot of it.

There's a clip of Lesbian, Butch, Dyke up on the Tube of You, since 2008. It has received a rather astonishing 256 THOUSAND views.

Good morning, all!

I slept quite poorly last night, my own fault since I did niot follow my usual regimen of my night. I was so worried about taking an overdose of something that I took only the Aleve PM.

DR George, I liked your Easter basket story.

DR vixmom, I hope your company's accountant will be okay. I hope you remain well, as well.

Today I need to look over the Babes In Toyland libretto, check the lyrics and the footnotes and send it off. I should be finished by noon, and then I will watch LA Then and Now. After that I'm going to check out the Li'l Abner items.

It's a gray rainy day here, so I'll hold off on a market trip. I do need to pay a couple of bills and send them off.

Good morning, all.

Well now I must get out that DVD and watch Hotel, which I have only seen twice at the most, and never in a theater.

Vibes for DR VIXMOM & her office & job.

DR FJL's production of North by NW sounds like fun.

I was reading DR CILLA LIZ and DR JANE's post and couldn't figure out what a PPE was.....I thought it was an app to post pictures.....and then it came to me......

Jrand74 · « **Reply #19 on:** April 13, 2020, 05:54:53 AM »

I think The Hypnotic Eye with Jacques Bergerac & Allison Hayes was filmed in the HYPNAGOGIC process.....

Druxy · « **Reply #20 on:** April 13, 2020, 05:55:15 AM »

T.O.D.

I don't think I have any favorite films of Rod Taylor, Melvyn Douglas or Karl Malden.

I did lunch with Malden one day, back in the early 1970s.

I interviewed him for my book on Paul Muni.

Malden was in the Broadway production of KEY LARGO.

It was a pleasant meeting. He was a nice man.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #21 on:** April 13, 2020, 05:56:47 AM »

TOD:

Rod Taylor: The VIPS, The Time Machine, World Without End, Welcome to Woop Woop, Hotel

Karl Malden: Dead Ringer, Streetcar...., The Streets of San Francisco

Melvyn Douglas: Ninotchka, Hud

Back to writing on the new play today.

Maybe, if I can get a "hall pass," I'll even go out and get the mail.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #23 on:** April 13, 2020, 05:57:33 AM »

Very windy today, I am hoping my trash can out by the street doesn't blow over....before it's emptied....at least the one that's full of dead leaves and clippings.....that would be a nice surprise for the neighborhood.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #24 on:** April 13, 2020, 05:57:50 AM »

I enjoyed the ABNER clips......

Druxy · « **Reply #25 on:** April 13, 2020, 05:58:56 AM »

I am getting a bit "stir crazy".

ChasSmith · « **Reply #26 on:** April 13, 2020, 06:09:42 AM »

BK, thank you for mentioning the fiddle player.

As it happens, I was going to ask about how you handled the overture, so now that’s answered.

I watched each clip three or four times last night on the iPad, and will get back to them on the computer with the good monitors today. More later!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #27 on:** April 13, 2020, 06:12:24 AM »

Because like I said, Abner’s a grail for this DR.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #28 on:** April 13, 2020, 06:16:57 AM »

Well, this line of rainstorms and thunderstorms and heavy winds reaching all the way down into Florida is extremely aggravating, and it’s what we’re going to be in all day. The hatches are battened down.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #29 on:** April 13, 2020, 06:28:06 AM »

I think it’s safe to say I can enjoy any movie that any of those three is in.

My introduction to Rod Taylor would have been my first seeing The Time Machine at a kiddie matinee, followed by The Birds a few years later.

Malden, not sure what I would have seen at an early age, but it was Patton that put him on the map for me.

EDIT: And that’s still the case as far as really getting to know him, but Dead Ringer in 1964 for sure!

I didn’t know who Melvyn Douglas was until I saw him in The Tenant in 1976. Even now, I’m forgetting what else I’ve since seen him in, but I know I’ve appreciated some of his earlier films.
